The GRA112V is the third generation of 3U VPX graphics boards, bringing the NVIDIA® Kepler graphics processing unit to the rugged military and aerospace market for both video and graphics generation and general purpose computing (GPGPU).

For both runtime performance and ease of

programming, NVIDIA’s EXK107 GPU

enables significant gains in SIGINT, radar and video or image processing applications. With 384 processing cores, single- and double-precision floating point units, improved shared memory architecture and cache hierarchy, together with faster atomic operations, the

GRA112V’s EXK107 GPU is capable of CUDA

Compute Capability v3.0.

The 3U VPX form factor of the GE Intelligent Platforms GRA112V allows maximum

bandwidth connectivity between NVIDIA’s

EXK107 GPU and the system backplane, routing the full 16 lanes of Gen 3-capable PCI Express® to the backplane for connection to a CPU, such as a 3rd generation Intel® Core™-i7 SBC. This highbandwidth interconnect helps reduce latency, particularly in applications which transfer large volumes of data to the GPU for processing.

In order to support legacy platforms, the GRA112V implements a scan-converter on one of the RGB analog outputs, allowing the product to drive an interlaced video output. The sync signals can be separate, composite or sync on green, and the video signal can be single-ended or differential.

Designed to be pin-compatible with GE’s GRA111, the GRA112V offers two independent graphics channels in both analog VESA and digital DVI formats.

This high-performance graphics card is

available in all five of GE’s standard rugged

build levels, from benign lab environments to wide-temperature rugged conductioncooled, and in a two-level maintenance (2LM) VITA 48-REDI variant with rear covers.

In critical applications where it is desirable to have a fast shutdown of computing equipment, an option exists for a fast power-supply discharge.

The GRA112V is a form, fit and function replacement for the GRA111, and may be deployed in the MAGIC1 Rugged Display Computer to provide a fast-to-market solution for high-performance graphics and GPGPU signal processing applications.
